Ive been doing a few trials with this new Timtana flour (for more on the flour, see my post from a couple of days ago), and while I don’t think its suited for more delicate baking, it works well in many of the yeast-raised breads and the more hearty quickbreads.
I tried some out a couple [...]
I love meatballs. Meaty goodness, in a bite-sized package — all the fun of meatloaf without the commitment!
One of the things I like about them is the fact that you can combine them with all kinds of flavours — any way you want. That way you can eat them in all kinds of forms — [...]
With fall weather in full force here, and winter on its way, my food thoughts are turning to comfort food: stews, baked casseroles, and of course, desserts that really feel like dessert!.
One of my favourite desserts is sticky toffee pudding, which I usually steam (not bake), and top with delicious toffee sauce. I started thinking [...]
A while back, I came up with a recipe fora sweet potato salad that a friend with a number of food restrictions would be able to enjoy. Due to health issues, he was avoiding gluten, dairy, eggs, sugar, all citrus, corn and tomatoes.
This fit the bill on all fronts, and is hearty enough to have [...]
Marion and her sister over at “She said, she said“ have been writing about nostalgic/comfort food such as tuna casserole and meat loaf. Well, that got me to hankering after meatloaf, so, what’s a gal to do but whip up a little “pain de viande” (everything sounds tres chic in French, doesn’t it?). I leapt [...]
So not having dinner planned the other night, I ran across a whole chicken marked way down in price at the supermarket. I decided there and then that I would make a roast chicken for dinner. The usual problem with roast chicken? — you want to eat before 9:00 at night, but you want your [...]
Most of the bread I have been making lately has been of the Artisan type — large crumb structure with big holes, very crusty exterior. Not everyone in the house is as enamoured of this type, preferring “fluffy” bread, so I have been trying out different recipes for sandwich type loaves.
A couple of days ago, [...]
We are having friends for dinner, so decided to make short ribs — on sale at the supermarket. We are lucky to have a number of independent grocery chains here, so have lots of competition among supermarkets. Even so, one of the grocery chains tends to stock more standard cuts of meat, whereas the other [...]
So in the latest issue of Cooks Illustrated, there is a recipe for Swedish meatballs, that i though was somewhat intriguing. It starts much like my usual recipe for meatballs, except at one point it calls for you to put in a small amout of baking powder, and then beat the heck out of the [...]
The snow here continues, so…
